Great loss of life.

A couple of nights ago, there was a fire at the Santika club in Bangkok, Thailand. Roughly 60 people died in that fire. There is youtube video of the fire and the dead along with many newspaper articles.

As I read the names of the first 18 that were killed in the fire, my heart sank because I have been to that club numerous times with many friends. I didn't want to see a friends name on the list. So far, only one person that I knew, through other friends, was killed in the fire.

Sumalee Meksup 26, BKK, Thailand.

There were many other of my friends that were going to be there, but for one reason or another, didn't make it-thank God!

This hits home with me because, like I said, I have been to that club many times and so have numerous friends.
